CHICAGO, May 26.-At the opening of the wheat
market this morning June was in demand at
S81Sc, July at &C. This was for only moment.
July then sold at $3.50 and June at 8S15c There
was very little trade in the later months, but it
was fair sign of the circumspection with
| which dealers, after their past three days ex-
| perience, regard the wheat clique. All of the
| news received eorly in the morning was beaTish.
| Foreign markets were barely steady, and crop
| reports from the Northwest were very f1attering
for the new crop. During the first hour June
| advanced to SS5sc, and had many bidders at
that July hung around s825G1S7c. Then came
quite furry in June wheat, and the difference
| Between JUNE and July, which was BIC yester-
| day, widened to 29sc. at one time to-day. The
| cause was an unexpected buying demand from
small scattering shorts in the crowd. The de-
| mand was almost entirely from people who were
| short fves tens and twenties, and the clique
| were taken by surprise. IL was not their inten-
ton to allow the price to advance, but they had
| no orders to SELL and before they had known it
June had advanced from Ssas0s91sc. By the
| time June had reached the latter figure, Kershaw
i was in the pit with plenty of selling orders. He
| very quickly disposed of from 100000 to 100000
| bushels in small lots. Shortly after he began
| selling the crowd stopped buying, and June
dropped back 30 soc in the twinkling of an eye.
| Around s9c and s91sc it remained steady for
4 some time. During the afternoon session June
| oueted down, and closed at sS54c. July wheat
| was shade weaker, and sold down to 1910
| S655c. Corn was firm at the start, but it
weakened minute later July started at 4O4c,
Il 40ISc Trading at these figures was fairly active
4 during the day. July closed at 4014c. Provis-
ions were weaker July lard opened at SO e7IR,
close Of the first hours business, provisions be-
| came frlner. July lard advanced to 80 72l5,
